Verdict? I adore french toast, and I love trying all of the variations on the dish. Common Galaxia's version was indulgent and delicious, with lots of flavour and delightful textures. Due to the super sweet nature of the dish, it's probably not something I'd order for brunch every day, but I'm glad I got to try it! Coffee, juice, service and ambience were excellent as always.
